Section A - Authority Interaction

1.0 General

1.1 Agreement for the Promotion of Aviation Safety.

  • 1.1.1 The Agreement Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of Canada for the Promotion of Aviation Safety, dated June 12, 2000, (commonly referred to as the Bilateral Aviation Safety Agreement or BASA) facilitates acceptance of each other’s airworthiness approvals, environmental testing, approval of civil aeronautical products, acceptance of maintenance approvals, alterations or modifications, approvals and monitoring of maintenance facilities, alteration or modification facilities, maintenance personnel, aviation training establishments, and flight operations. The BASA is available at:
    1. For FAA: https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/air_cert/international/bilateral_agreements/baa_basa_listing or https://drs.faa.gov
    2. For TCCA: https://tc.canada.ca/en/aviation/aircraft-airworthiness/international-agreements-arrangements
  • 1.1.2 The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA) (collectively, the “Authorities,” and individually, an “Authority”) ensures that persons maintaining U.S. or Canadian aeronautical products be familiar with the BASA and the associated Maintenance Implementation Procedures (MIP). In particular, the FAA and TCCA shall ensure that U.S. air carriers and Canadian air operators, respectively, who contract maintenance to TCCA-Approved Maintenance Organizations (AMO) and FAA-certificated repair stations, accepted in accordance with the MIP, verify that the maintenance providers comply with the regulatory requirements of any special conditions listed in the current revision of the MIP and any required supplement.
  • 1.1.3 This document sets forth the FAA and TCCA maintenance-related implementing procedures as authorized by the BASA. The MIP provides, in pertinent part, that the FAA and TCCA shall pursue mutual cooperation and technical support in evaluation and acceptance of each other's systems and continued monitoring of maintenance facilities and maintenance personnel.
  • 1.1.4 In accordance with the BASA, the objective of this MIP is to outline the terms and conditions under which the FAA and TCCA can accept each other's inspections and evaluations of FAA-certificated repair stations and TCCA AMOs, as well as FAA-certificated airframe and powerplant (A&P) mechanics and TCCA-licensed aircraft maintenance engineers (AME). This will reduce redundant regulatory oversight without adversely affecting aviation safety.

2.0 Authorization

This MIP is authorized by Article III of the BASA. In that respect, the FAA and TCCA have assessed each other's standards and systems relating to the approval of FAA-certificated A&Ps and repair stations and TCCA-licensed AMEs and AMOs, which perform maintenance, alterations, or modifications on civil aeronautical products, and have established an understanding of such standards and systems.

3.0 Amendments

3.1 The FAA and TCCA may amend this MIP by mutual consent. Significant revision by either Authority to their organization, regulations, procedures, and/or standards may affect the execution of the MIP. In accordance with applicable laws and regulations, each Authority shall promptly advise the other Authority of plans for such relevant changes, and to give an opportunity for comment. Upon notice of such changes by one Authority, the other Authority may request consultation to review the need for amendment to this MIP. The revisions will be recorded in the revision history page of the MIP to include a brief description of the change, revision number, and date of approval.

3.2 The details of any such amendment will be recorded and signed by the representative (or their authorized representative) identified in the signature approval page of the MIP.

3.3 Suggestions for improvement are welcome and can be addressed to the appropriate offices described in Section A, Paragraph 5.0.

4.0 National requirements

4.1 The regulatory requirements for aviation safety enforced by TCCA are contained in Canadian Aviation Regulations (CAR) and are explained in ancillary documents and procedures.

4.2 The regulatory requirements for aviation safety enforced by the FAA are contained in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) and are explained in ancillary documents and procedures.

If appropriate, resolution of such disagreements will be recorded as an amendment to this MIP, in accordance with Section A, Paragraph 3.0.

7.0 Definitions

For the purposes of this MIP, the following definitions are provided. Additional definitions can be found in Article II of the BASA:

  1. Administrator. The Administrator of the FAA.
  2. Annual Inspection. For the purposes of this MIP, an Annual Inspection is the same as a 12-month inspection. An inspection at intervals not to expire later than the last day of the 12th month, following the preceding inspection.
  3. Approval for Return to Service. For the FAA, this means a record entry certifying the work performed on the aircraft, airframe, aircraft engine, propeller, appliance, or component part has been performed satisfactorily, and includes the signature, certificate number, and kind of certificate held by the person approving the work. The signature constitutes the approval for return to service only for the work performed. This term is equivalent to the TCCA term “maintenance release.”
  4. Canada. In a geographical sense, (1) the provinces and territories, including territorial waters, and (2) the airspace of those areas.
  5. CAR. Canadian Aviation Regulations.
  6. CFR. Code of Federal Regulations, specifically Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
  7. Data Approved by TCCA. Data that is approved by the Minister or a delegate of the Minister.
  8. Data Approved by the FAA. Data that is approved by the Administrator or the Administrator's designated representative.
  9. FAA-certificated Repair Station. An air agency certificated under 14 CFR part 145 that performs maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alterations on an aircraft, airframe, aircraft engine, propeller, appliance, or component part to which 14 CFR part 43 applies.
  10. FAA-certificated Repair Station Located Outside the United States. In the context of this MIP, this term relates to all 14 CFR part 145 repair stations located outside of the territorial boundaries of the United States.
  11. Independent Check. For TCCA, independent checks are required when the performance of maintenance disturbs engine or flight controls. The system will be inspected by at least two persons for correct assembly and correct locking of any parts disturbed by the maintenance performed, including an operational check to ensure that proper sense and range of motion of the engine or flight controls has been accomplished, and that the technical record contains the signatures of both persons. One of the signatures required by this section may be that of the person who has signed the maintenance release.
  12. Line Maintenance. In addition to the FAA definition of Line Maintenance found in 14 CFR § 145.3(d), line maintenance is maintenance carried out before flight to ensure that the aircraft is fit for the intended flight.
    1. 1. Line Maintenance may include:
      1. Trouble shooting.
      2. Defect rectification.
      3. Component replacement with use of external test equipment, if required.
      4. Component replacement may include components such as engines and propellers.
      5. Scheduled maintenance and/or checks, including visual inspections that will detect obvious unsatisfactory conditions/discrepancies, but that do not require extensive in depth inspection. It may also include internal structure, systems, and power plant items that are visible through quick-opening access panels/doors.
    2. 2. Maintenance tasks falling outside of the scope of the repair station ratings cannot be performed as line maintenance.
    3. 3. Maintenance tasks falling outside of the AMO certificate cannot be performed as line maintenance.
  13. Maintenance Control Manual (MCM). An approved TCCA manual that contains information to ensure the efficiency of the maintenance control system, as set out in CAR 706 and Standard 726.
  14. Maintenance Policy Manual (MPM). An approved TCCA manual for an AMO that contains information to ensure the efficiency of the AMO’s maintenance policies as set out in CAR 573.
  15. Maintenance Release. For TCCA, this means a certification made following the maintenance of an aeronautical product, indicating that the maintenance was performed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the CARs and the associated standards of airworthiness. This statement is synonymous with the FAA term “approval for return to service.”
  16. Preventive Maintenance. For the FAA, this means the work described in 14 CFR part 43, Appendix A, paragraph (c), provided it does not involve complex assembly operations.
  17. Rebuilt Engine. An engine that has been disassembled, cleaned, inspected, repaired as necessary, reassembled, and tested to the same tolerances and limits as a new item by the production approval holder in accordance with 14 CFR § 43.2(b).
  18. Repair Station Manual (RSM). A repair station’s policy manual accepted by the FAA.
  19. Required Inspection Items (RII). For the FAA, this means the items of maintenance and alterations that must be inspected by a person other than the one who performed the work. These items include at least those that could result in a failure, malfunction, or defect endangering the safe operation of the aircraft if not performed properly or if improper parts or materials are used.
  20. Special Conditions. (See Section B and C of this MIP.) Those requirements in either the FAA’s 14 CFR parts 43, 121, 135, and 145 or in TCCA’s CARs 571 and 573 that have been found, based on a comparison of the regulatory maintenance systems, not to be common to both systems and that are significant enough that they must be addressed.
  21. Specialized Maintenance. Maintenance tasks set out in Schedule II of CAR 571.04 that must be performed by an appropriately rated FAA-certificated repair station or an appropriately rated TCCA AMO.
  22. Suspected Unapproved Part (SUP). For TCCA, this is a part installed or intended for installation in a type certified aeronautical product where reasonable grounds exist to believe the part is an unapproved part. For FAA, A part that is suspected of failing to meet any of the criteria pursuant to §§ 21.8 or 21.9. A part that, for any reason, a person believes is not approved for use on a type certificated product. Reasons may include findings such as different finish, size, color, improper (or lack of) identification, incomplete or altered paperwork, or any other unusual or abnormal characteristic.
  23. TCCA AMO. An Approved Maintenance Organization holding an approval pursuant to Canadian Aviation Regulations Part V, Subpart 73 (CAR 573).
  24. TCCA Foreign AMO. In the context of this MIP relates to CAR 573 AMOs located outside the territorial boundaries of Canada.
  25. United States. In a geographical sense, this includes (1) the United States and its territories, and (2) the airspace of those areas.
